The dramatic, untold story of the brilliant team whose feats of innovation and engineering created the world’s first digital electronic computer—decrypting the Nazis’ toughest code, helping bring an end to WWII, and ushering in the information age. • Winner, Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Middleton Award for "a book ... that both exemplifies exceptional scholarship and reaches beyond academic communities toward a broad public audience." • A Kirkus Best Book of 2022 • Planning the invasion of Normandy, the Allies knew that decoding the communications of the Nazi high command was imperative for its success. But standing in their way was an encryption machine they called Tunny (British English for “tuna”), which was vastly more difficult to crack than the infamous Enigma cipher. To surmount this seemingly impossible challenge, Alan Turing, the Enigma codebreaker, brought in a maverick English working-class engineer named Tommy Flowers who devised the ingenious, daring, and controversial plan to build a machine that would calculate at breathtaking speed and break the code in nearly real time. Together with the pioneering mathematician Max Newman, Flowers and his team produced—against the odds, the clock, and a resistant leadership—Colossus, the world’s first digital electronic computer, the machine that would help bring the war to an end. Drawing upon recently declassified sources, David A. Price’s Geniuses at War tells, for the first time, the full mesmerizing story of the great minds behind Colossus and chronicles the remarkable feats of engineering genius that marked the dawn of the digital age.

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The United States had two agencies that decoded intercepted communications: one in the army and one in the navy. This arrangement may have made the maximum number of bureaucrats happy, but it sometimes led to counterproductive results. #2 The Government Code Cypher School was created in 1919 to decode messages between the German government and its agents. It was headed by Denniston, who had never run anything before. He disliked anything to do with bureaucracy and administration, but he was needed to decode the messages. #3 In the early 1920s, the German military began to build up its army beyond the limit set by the Treaty of Versailles. It built secret flying clubs and sent its officers and crews abroad for training. #4 Hitler had promised the German military that he would purge the SA, his enforcers, in exchange for their support. In June 1934, the officers began executing SA leaders and others deemed suspect. Hitler claimed that 74 people had been killed, but unofficial estimates were much higher.
